Yes,I know it's spelled oscilloscope,but that's poetic freedom for you.I was going to tell all about the Philips oscilloscope I got for free last weekend and me getting to learn how to use it.Well,when I was testing it last evening it kinda started to smoke.Somehow having two probes plugged in and then starting to turn knobs at random was too much for the poor device.
There is a chance that it isn't as bad as it looked(and that was pretty bad),but I'll find that out tomorrow when I do the autopsy.
The last few days I have been more busy with taking apart things than actually building them.But I have a few designs for pendulums/magbots in my head and the parts to build the frames.What I need to do is to test how good the coils are which I took from the old VCRs.
I have plenty of them right now or, if those don't work very well,I'll make my own coils out of the copperwire taken from transformators.
